Mostly my Roamio is working as expected, but for couple of shows I just can't get it to record them properly.

For these shows
- there is no conflict (in fact it is the only show to be recorded at that time)
- I temporarily set it to record all (new and old, all seasons) - just to make sure that I am not somehow inadvertently restricting what is to be recorded
-there is no double checkmark ever present for any episode(in upcoming)
- the show will record if I manually force it - in such a case the option will be "record again" which makes absolutely no sense because it is a first showing, with a future date, so there is no way it could have been recorded previously

I really don't know what is going on here - I never had this problem with my old tivo

The only time "All" is the default for channel when you create a 1P is when there is no episode in the guide, usually for a series that is going to start at some point in the future.

I'm glad they changed that. It used to be "All" when a program first appeared in the guide and there was "No upcoming" shown. That would go away, and the next day the program and a channel would show up in a Search.

The problem with the new system is what happened here though. Since you can go into the future now by a good margin, you can set One Passes in a show's offseason. But if the show is syndicated, the TiVo is only going to find the re-runs on a different channel and default to recording on that channel. A user who assumes that setting an OP for Shark Tank will get him or her the new episodes when the show comes back may later be in for a poor surprise when they miss the new episodes because the OP automatically set itself for only CNBC (as that is where the re-runs go). I think it should always default to all channels because of this.
